Having thus fully described myinvention, what l claim as new, and desire to secure byLetters Patent, is

l. The combination with a movable memberhaving 2. taperedvsocket, of a wrist pin extending into the socket, and 'a tapered split bushing having weakening slots bot-h on the inside and outside .of the inishing.-

2. The combination with a movable mein ber having a tapered socket, of a wrist pin extending into the socket, :i taperedsplit bushing having weakening slots bothl on the inside and. outside of the bushing, and a spring bearing vagainst the larger end of the bushing to urge it into thesocket.-

3. 'l`hecombiuation with 'two members to be connecte-d., of a wrist pin having bear'- vings in both members, and means engaging both members and the wrist pin for automatically taking up the wear of said bearings.

^ 4. The combination with two members 1o be connected having sockets, of a wrist pin connecting the members and engaged in the sockets, tapered bushings around the wrist in and cneared in the sockets and meansfor automatically urging the bushings apart. 5. The combination with two members to be connected having alinea oppositeiy tapered sockets, of a wrist pin connectingwrist pin and engaged in the sockets, bearing cups on the larger 'ends of the bushings, and a coiled spring interposed between and engaged with said cups.

7. The combination with a piston having alined oppositely spaced bearing elements provided with tapered sockets, of a connecting rod vhaving a transverse opening with inwardly tapered end portions, a wrist pin extending throu l1 the opening and into the sockets of the piston, compressible tapered bushings in the sockets and tapered portions ofthe opening, und springs interposed between the larger ends ot the bushings to urge them into the sockets. y
